OPC UA
Forge
Connecting IT and OT for secure, streamlined operations
Product from our technology partner ProsysOPC
Connect, Harmonize, Publish
Use Prosys OPC UA Forge to connect to OPC UA servers and access operational data from sensors, devices, machines, and automation systems. Harmonize data using information modeling and normalization, and publish your data to MES, ERP, IoT, and other IT systems using OPC UA.
Single Point of Access
Having all your data behind a single point of access enables tighter firewall rules and better network control, simplifying your system architecture and significantly improving security. Once configured, Prosys OPC UA Forge is your secure gateway for accessing OT data of all underlying servers.
Effective Onboarding and Reconfiguration
The growing number of hardware and software items from different vendors in production processes requires new solutions to organize your data. Prosys OPC UA Forge enables a straightforward on-boarding and reconfiguration of IT systems and production equipment, as well as easy scaling to multiple production sites.
Unified Address Space
Once configured, the unified address space exposes underlying data from all the connected data sources, according to your naming and structuring principles. This result streamlines OT data acquisition for IT systems, providing information in the most suitable and standard way.
Information Modeling and Data Harmonization
Browse the underlying address spaces of all connected servers and select the data you want to harmonize and publish. Easy-to-use operations such as rename, scale, and offset assist you in achieving your goals. Modeling tools enable mapping and organizing underlying data into information models based on industry standards.
Run on Any Platform
Prosys OPC UA Forge utilizes our cross-platform OPC UA components and technology, enabling deployments on virtually any hardware and operating system, including container systems such as Docker. Depending on your specific needs, you can choose between a pre-packaged containerized version or an operating system-specific installation.
Suites
Suites include one or more technical modules designed to meet the advanced requirements of various use cases.
IoT & Field Connectivity
Any data can be published via the MQTT broker of your choice to integrate with the cloud and other systems effectively using OPC UA PubSub.
Events
Smart and easy mapping of data values to events or vice versa to enable integration between manufacturing execution and automation systems. This suite contains modules Event Mapper and Event Generator.
Data Storage
Collect and store OT data at the edge, ensuring data integrity and meeting track & trace requirements. This suite contains modules Data Logger and History.
Data Exchange
Click and connect data points between separate systems, enabling real-time server-to-server data exchange in an easy-to-configure way.
OPC UA over REST
Facilitate OPC UA communication for systems lacking native support through an OpenAPI-compliant REST API.
Advanced Mappings
Map your data by scaling and offsetting values, evaluating values via arithmetic and logical expressions, and defining transformation maps.
Connectors.
Connectors offer native communication with devices and systems, supporting selected popular industrial protocols.
Modbus Connector
Migrate Modbus devices and systems onto modern OPC UA technology, enabling secure communication with advanced features.
ADS Connector
Beckhoff ADS Connector enables efficient integration of devices and systems using native protocol.
